Dental Crowns
A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the whole tooth surface restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects and reinforces the tooth structure providing the tooth a longer life span than it would have if recovered by fillings or other kinds of restorations.
Crowns are full coverage restorations that are utilized to cover a tooth that is most likely to break, or is too broken down to be recovered with a filling. They are most typically done after root canal treatments, or when a large filling breaks. The larger the hole made by a cavity that has to be treated, the more likely a crown will be needed. Even after a filling is put in a huge cavity, a tooth is most likely to break. Keep in mind that the jaw muscles are the strongest in the human body. Teeth go through remarkable pressures. Crowns sit over the weakened tooth, offering strength and protecting the tooth against damage. A broken or cracked tooth is a far more severe matter and far more challenging to treat. Crowns prevent this, as well as making for a nice smile.
It takes 2 appointments to bring back a tooth with a crown. In the very first appointment any decay is eliminated from the tooth and it is formed to accept the crown. Then an impression is made of the tooth for use in making a crown. In between the two visits the crown is made, typically of high-strength porcelain over gold alloy, all ceramic product, or gold. A short-term crown is used during this time. In the second visit this short-term crown is removed. Then the {permanent crown is adjusted as needed then cemented in place.
Exactly What Does Getting A Crown Include?
A crown procedure normally requires two appointments. Your first visit will include taking impressions that will be utilized to produce your customized crown. A mold will also be utilized to create a short-term crown which will stay on your tooth for around two weeks until your new crown is fabricated by a dental lab.
While the tooth is numb, the dental practitioner will prepare the tooth by eliminating any decay and shaping the surface area to properly fit the crown. When these details are achieved, your short-term crown will be placed with temporary cement and your bite will be inspected to guarantee you are biting properly.
At your 2nd appointment your temporary crown will be removed, the tooth will be cleaned, and your brand-new crown will be carefully positioned to ensure the spacing and bite are accurate.
You will be given care instructions and encouraged to have regular dental visits to inspect your crown. As always, appropriate oral hygiene will help extend the life of your brand-new crown.
